#that’s a good episode it rlly stuck with me

[rozugold]

Lowkey feeling like spongebob in that one episode where he has a whole breakdown about hating being an adult and missing being babied by his grandma

[malues]

HAIII!! I was super fixated on LOTS during my exams and it almost cost me. But it helped relieve stress at least :D ANYWAY. I got stuff I wanna say, and it’s nice to have a main creator’s opinion. But pls correct or change my headcannons or anything, I do like accuracy. :p Apologies if this is long (I literally hv no other ppl to talk ab LOTS stuff like this with)

I see Michael and CB always hv sharp teeth when rlly upset, and I interpret CB’s lil bump in his teeth as a fang. Is that a good interpretation to have? I like the idea of those two being an intimidating sharp teeth duo

Semi-related to above, I like to think operators and their patients are very super similar. Like they’re sort of fated to be that patients operator for a reason yk? Like Michael and CB mirror each other a lot in their own way, yet are so opposite. And it seemed that PB was clean and stuff, but his operator wasn’t (rlly cool mirroring). Crown and Sean just compliment each other and get along great. I’m also mostly fixated on Michael’s and CB’s dynamic, Michael and CB being a complete mental mess in their own rights, and little things like Michael likes rabbits and CB bunny ears jokes :> I also like the idea CB holds a form of resentment cuz his friends get chiller operators and he was instead locked up for months.

Also Michael seems like the type to get over-stimulated and lash out, or collapse onto herself. Would she pace around? (If so, I like to think she holds her pinwheel top still cuz it’ll spin from the air yk and it would be more over-stimulating) Does she pen click when frustrated? Does she chew? Or does she mess with her pinwheel pieces>

I also like the idea that CB throws tantrums and is prone to unintentionally lashing out, he’s over-energetic and he can’t help it. Like he lashes out at crown and his operator. Would his lashing out come from stress, fear or anxiety?

I think that’s mostly it. Uhhhh my only complaint is you should’ve made PB cry in episode 1c, I wanna see TEARS lol

Ok thank u! I’m excited for more episodes, livestreams, videos and whatever else u hv planned ^.^

I LOVE ALL UR THOUGHTS!!! ill try to answer these without giving too much away

the fangs/bumps in a characters teeth is less of an actual trait and more of a little thing i draw whenever i feel like itd be funny to show on screen, but more detailed interpretations of that are fine by me!

the relationship between operator and patient is really hard to explain, especially in a general sense. i wouldnt call it fate COMPLETELY but the patient that an operator is assigned isnt COMPLETELY random either if that makes any sense. im happy u noticed the similarities between cb and michael, and we'll get to see a lot more of their relationship as the episodes go on. both of them are very prone to lashing out if in the right context but for their own reasons. the lashouts originate from a lot of mixed emotions, but i think part of it comes from both of them thinking "Why am i stuck with this asshole?"

also i agree that i shouldve made pb cry in 1c. when faeb did those lines i was taken aback cause i didnt expect him to sound like hes on the verge of tears!!!! but i guess it makes sense

thank you for your kind words!! im excited for everyone to see whats next for the show

[buttfrovski]

This may be a silly question but what got you into south park

i kinda have this thing where i watch well known shows/movies just for the sake of being in the know. understanding references. nothing to do with the genre or appeal or whatever.

saw south park on hbo and decided to watch. first episode already had me laughing hard. hyperfixation eventually set in.

i was really stuck up, irritable, and sad at that point in life. and being able to laugh and stop taking shit so seriously rlly changed me for the better. it was also nice being fixated on media that was so unserious and lighthearted.

it got me to start drawing too which has deff been good for my brain chemistry haha

Quick poster for episode two,

Info about plan for episode two

For episode two is when Noah starts having the evil grow inside him and begin the start of journey to villainy. (Probs obvi by poster)

But first Alejandro has his little intro moment and him and Zoey start to develop a sort of friendship, while Heather is kinda nervous to see him again and Noah is helping no one. He has his little vengeance on Alejandro, teasing him a bit and probably making it things worse for Heather by being himself.

On the Clown Caterpillars, Cameron talks to Gwen about smt that won’t make sense til full ep comes out and eventually leads to the reveal of why Cam has the new outfit, he thinks he is rlly cool and can take on anything now, Scott ends up teasing him and people don’t like Scott now, but still feels bad.

Blah, blah, blah, challenge.

CC (caterpillar clowns) start off rlly good till the GG (Ghoulish Guinea pigs) pull some sabotage, thanks to Alejandro, giving them a chance and so GG end up winning the first challenge, reward with tools for the next challenge.

Next challenge is to escape whilst the place is crumbling. The CC mange to leave the main area only to get more stuck, thanks to their non stop fighting , and Cameron takes charge as a leader, quickly encouraging his team to quick aside their constant fighting. Something is Cam’s speech gives Courtney some encouragement to take Gwen back. Most of the GG do pretty well getting out, though thanks to Noah accidentally damaging the tools get stuck and Noah decides , so Noah suggests they look in this giant oven for a way to get out, only for him to trap Joe in there and pin their failure on her, determined to not be the first one voted off his team again.

Afterwards, Joe is blaming Noah, but Noah insistes it was Joe who broke the tools and got herself stuck. The team is mixed on it, though Alejandro defends Noah and says he does think Noah would do any of that.

Also Heather and Alejandro make up and become friends, again.

This is a lot of paraphrasing cause if I’m actually gonna continue making all these episodes gonna leave so stuff. But, like between part one and two of ep one, there is probs gonna be a jump is quality cuz I am still experimenting with his stuff and now that I’ve got a substantial amount done, I’m more willing to put more effort in.

Trying to get other people who aren’t just me to do the voice acting too, asking some friends n stuff, because just me is not a recipe for success.

[thedndgoblinwholivesinyourwalls]

Lark can I just ask u 1-25 for end of year asks or is that too much? 🤨 if it is then choose the ones u wanna answer the most but if u have the timeeee <3

kelp i'm going insane i love answering questions this is the best thing ever

uh. answers under the cut so everyone else gets spared/silly

According to spotify wrapped it was Nothing matters by the Last Dinner Party but I'd say Good Luck Babe by chappell roan (not that amazing but that was me discovering her music)

...I don't listen to albums...but if musicals count then the Heathers soundtrack lmao

I deleted this question and then forgot if it said solo artists and/or bands but!! Lesley Gore! Yes she sung in the 60's if i'm correct but I love her music

EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE that movie makes me ill/pos

Sweetooth because its last season came out this year and I'm still not recovering (you should watch it,,,its rlly good,,)

I don't rlly watch tv shows (i should) so I'd say a podcast episode that stuck with me this year was the first ep of the Peachyville Horror just cuz I love the characters <3

David Tennant. I do not know actors but I questioned my gender and sexuality over that man

Mouthwashing even though I've pretty recently discovered it and haven't even played it myself

I had to go through my photos for this one but best month would be July! Even though it started kinda shitty (breakup lmao), it was Artfight season and thats the most connected I've felt with other artists in agesss

I won't say breakup but I will say The Dictionary of Lost Words by Pip Williams made me question my life and sob (its such a good book)

Wear whatever I want in public!! Or just get better self confidence next year would be great

I did make a new irl friend but egh not on good terms anymore so I'd say in online friends literally all my mutuals I talk to now hiii love you guys (this includes you kelp/lh)

It was great!! Some planning issues but I had a picnic :]

besides the book i already recommended, there's An Unexpected Party edited by Seth Malacari which is a bunch of short queer speculative fiction stories set in Australia and it makes me so so happy to see characters like me fr!!! (its way more diverse than I was expecting and covers so many things besides queerness)

skipping school...school attendance DROPPED this year but 2025 will be my year trust

For the life of me I can't remember meals but I can say a food related memory. I'm half latino and I said tortilla in the whitest way possible unironically and I can't escape it/hj

Tbh school! Chose subjects I think I'll really enjoy next year

I learned a lot in artstyle! My art has evolved and I'm very happy about that

Redecorated my room at my mum's so now its more cozy :D

Sydney! Go there pretty much every year to see family but its still a nice place to go

To be prepared for change cuz oh boy past me you have a road ahead of you

I don't rlly keep new year's resolutions cuz I forget most of the time lmao

I DID!!! Most of my ocs became more fleshed out characters and I made a lot of dnd ocs this year

For the pictures questions you get art/silly

One on the left is from exactly a year ago and the one on the right is from two weeks ago!! (not the best example but these are the same characters)

[stgosupremacy]

MY SATOGOU GOODBYE RANT.

so yeah i said i would do one so here i am. honestly dont know how long this will be so let's get stuck in lmao <33

I'm starting after the 'im glad i met you part', bc i kind of already did a post on that anyway lol (and just wanted to add, in the dub they changed it to 'I'm sure glad i met you,' and Ash says it so soft omg i literally died on the spot watching it ;-;

(headsup ignore the fact some of the images are off a youtube channel i couldn't find the scenes💀)

so i hope this is all in order, but this bit is so so SO sweet when Goh tells him 'thanks for reaching out for me' like no surprise i was literally crying at that point like sgdxkjnfsgf it's so sweet to me that without Ash none of his journey would have really happened, but tbf you could say the same for all of his companion tbh. either way, i am very glad goh met satoshi too omg <3 🥺

theennnnnn this part is Ash just offering some sweet words of advice and comfort, talking ab their dreams ect, like, nothing too bittersweet to see here, but i guess you can say the way he said 'WE' and meant both of them is sweet lmao

OK so on the palm of our hands thing i have a few things to say

first of all i love how Ash knew that he knew what to continue with bc they are just so in sync with each other ofc <3 and OFC they had to put that scene in for the last episode, like when it was in the Mewto episode for the first time, i was honestly screaming of how cute it was LIKE THE FACT ASH MADE THE LITTLE ADD ON OF 'OUR HANDS' IN THE FIRST TIME THEY DID IT JUST MAKES IT EVEN MORE CUTER EJHSKF

but anyways as much as i love this scene because of how 'the future is in the palm of our hands', can be interpreted in some otherways, 👀 I also couldnt help but thing about something else.

after/before the Project mew stuff actually started/finished (pretty sure it was after,) we see a scene of Goh, Gary and Horace using the 'palm of our hands' phrase together, and yeah its rlly cute lmao, but i was kind of hoping it was something unique for Ash and Goh, not trying to be a fusspot, but i think the scene now feels slightly less special to me now Goh used it with some other people?

I mean sure, ash and goh were still the first people who did it, and it IS their kind of thing lmao, like they created it. Even tho it was just an initial thought, it is still really sweet that goh used it with others don't get me wrong <3

when i was watching this i was like no way this is it lol like are you not gonna confess

jokes but thankfully they made a bittttt more to it (and good bc if they left it there I would be sitting there like what)

so they start to walk away from each other and you see Goh is still quite sad while Ash is still holding up, my heart was dying </3

STOP IT WHEN GOH STOPPED AND HE WAS ABOUT TO CRY AAAAAAAAAA 🥺🥺🥺

BUT OFC

OFC ASH HAS TO CALL OUT TO HIM AND THE WAY GOH'S EYES HAVE THE LITTLE SPARKLE WHEN HE HEARS HIS VOICE 💖 The fact Ash actually thought while he was walking away 'oh shit need to check up on the bf' lol and climbed up the little hill to wave him off again is the cutest thing; CANNOT CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE this made their whole goodbye for me tbh 💕💕💕

SUPPORTIVE BROS FOR REAL <3

ofc they want each other to achieve their dreams aww

ok but THIS

the bit where they nod at each other is so comforting to me like it's weird, but it gave me a little more satisfaction i'll say, lmao. also gives you a hint that they are wrapping up the goodbyes fully so it gave me some very brief preparation time 😢

and with that, Goh runs off into the distance.

</3 (my boy has grown up sm) 🥺

OK i do love that when he runs off, he's more confident, and when it switches back to Ash, it has him watching over Goh until he can't see him anymore, which is rlly cute <333 ahhh they're so pure man

Ash runs off to his new journey too, and he begins to talk about Pallet Town to Pikachu...

Thats it

yeah

SOOOOO BASICALLY THIS IS MORE OF THE RANT SECTION:

uhmmm so first things first. Did i like the goodbye for them? Well, yeah, it was quite cute, especially the end part where Ash gives him that last bit of encouragement and called out his name, because SHEESH if they left that part out and gave them that first goodbye without Ash calling out to him, and they just left each other....yeah, i wouldn't be happy.

see, i just kind of thought they deserved a bit better. It was v cute and all, but like they've been through so much together 😭 😭 😭 😭 like I'm saying this as a shipper but still 😂 tbf if they hugged I probably would have cried but let's be honest I could cry at anything at this point

but hey what we got was pretty cute, I just would have tweaked some things because honesty this duo are literally the closest I've ever seen in the anime, and I would have hoped for a little bit more, BUT IT'S FINE IT HAPPENED *mentally counts*

9 MONTHS AGO (??? where has the time gone)

but thank you for coming to my TED talk <33

[bithegai]

Hey this might be stupid or not helpful but idk felt like saying it

I've followed ya for a long while, ya were one of the first blogs I followed like what? 3ish years ago and am in shambles as well cause of. Well. All that. And just wanted to say that if ya will leave, I'd suggest not deleting anything permanently. I can't say much specificness cause I can't remember that time well but I do remember yr blog was always nice to check, wish I would've interacted more when stuff was good. Idk. Like at the end do whatever n all but I've liked the stuff ya put here and idk. It's a nice place. English isn't helping me much right now but I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed following ya, I didn't really know ya but you were cool. Wish you the best during these difficult times and just. Thanks for everything

Aw thank you.... that's very kind of you to say ❤️ and reassuring considering the thousands of blogs that come and go. I always just used this as kind of a rant blog for all HC stuff so it's v sweet hearing at least someone else got some joy out of it too lol. Feels like it's just another speck in the abyss, so genuinely it's very sweet that you remember it anon. Even crazier that you've been here for all these years too.... Would've been awesome having another friend to enjoy the wild ups and downs with

And honestly I'm not final on what I'm gonna do, just very.... lost like you. It just feels so weird right now cause like, pretty much my existence here is bc of Stress? (And yes, even though those involved have said all the issues were only with the other person 1. she still left and 2. the vast majority of her content involved him) Like I started this blog and made a twitch account for her. I learned how to archive vods bc of her. My first HC fanart is of her. The first "big" post I made was a list of recommendations for Stress episodes. And even though I talked abt her less recently compared to back then, personally she was such a big part of my enjoyment here that now I'm just ......?

Like I haven't posted about this, just bc I agree the focus should stay on those hurt by his actions and amplifying their stories. But god there was so much more I wanted to see from Stress. I was looking forward to the completed "Sentimental Stress" base. Possibly a revival of the Allium Alliance, and maybe even one day a 5/5 hermit gals collab. But it's never happening now. And honestly? I think I could've been fine, moved on. But it's the fact that there's nothing left to look back on either that hurts me the most.

In the past, when something grim happened, I would just play an old HC episode or a funny vod to cheer up. But all those videos I turned to, always feature either one or both of them. Not to be a stereotypical stan, but they were rlly my safe haven on those dark and dreary days. ......and now here we are. Not only is there little to look forward to, but it feels there's nothing left behind either. Cause tbcfh? My favorite part about HC is the history, seeing how long these friendships took to develop and how much stronger they are for it. So I loved those older, cringy series like Hunt the hermit or Foolcraft. And ofc I also downloaded a bunch of vods to watch back. Like the first big vault after co-op crystals were introduced, or that one 2021 twitch rivals with the two and False and Impulse. Hell I even have Ren's old MC dungeons vod of the three of them from when the game first released. But what's the point now? Everything I used to look forward to now leaves me sick, so what is there to turn to?

Honestly tho you're right anon. For preservation's sake I'll keep everything here even if I do end up going. With tumblr how it is, things get a lot more difficult to reach once someone deactivates. And I forgot I have things that False and Cleo (for the short time they were here) reblogged that I'd like to save. But we'll see. I hope you've been doing alright with this too anon. I mean hey, we've stuck around here for over 3 years now. All this time with the hermits has taught us that the best thing we can do: is to listen and support each other to build a brighter, kinder tomorrow

[realpinkdiamondsstuff]

Be honest pls

I started watching it a month ago and I've been stuck at the end of szn one because I don't really like this show to be honest :(((

I heard it being rlly hyped up so I tried to watch the first few episodes, but it didnt really hook me up like other shows did, like GF and SU . Tbf, Amphibia also didnt really look good to me at the start too, so maybe this is similar. Idk honestly, maybe i'm 100% wrong and its a genuinely awesome show, i want to finish watching it but I need some motivation.

Have an awesome day/night💗💗

[goose-ate-thebee]

why i resonated with stan in “you’re getting old/ass burgers” (FROM THE VAULT [2020])

You’re Getting Old/Ass Burgers has always been one of my favorite South Park episodes because I feel like I’ve always connected to it on so many levels and related to Stan a lot. My favorite part is the end of part 2 (Ass Burgers) after Stan was so depressed and had been seeing shit for so long he came to the realization that he DIDN’T want things to go back to the way they were. He realized he was fine with his parents getting a divorce and Kyle ditching him to go fuck Cartman because it opened his life up to new possibilities of where it could go. In his words he’s all like “I’m gonna make a big left turn” or whatever. The ending is also frustrating tho bc everything ended up going back to normal anyways so we didn’t get to see how that would’ve played out, but we’re not gonna talk about that we’re just gonna talk about the beautiful speech Stan made. That part has always resonated with me so much bc I agree with Stan. I remember at a certain age I just got to a point where I realized that the key to staying happy and optimistic is to stay open-minded and keep trying new things. I think it’s rlly important in life to follow those child-like curiosities you have when you’re a kid, when you’re younger you’re excited about everything and want to know about the whole world and how everything works, and I think it’s good to continue that mindset into adulthood. For me personally, I get really depressed easily if I feel like I’m stuck in one place, following the same routine and doing the same shit over and over, like that’s the point when everything starts to turn to shit to me too. It’s good to add some excitement and spontaneity to your life, and I know it can be hard for a lot of people to get out of their comfort zones, trust me I get this sometimes I can be a stubborn bitch and I only wanna stay in the same lane doing the same thing over and over, but trying new things and embracing change is what builds character. Sometimes life can seem scary, especially when you’re young and you don’t have everything figured out, but the truth is life just gets easier the more and more you challenge yourself to get out of your comfort zone and try things, it makes you more fearless. The more you can gain knowledge and wisdom about different aspects of life the easier you have it figured out, and this all comes with allowing yourself to get excited about new things, expanding your interests and having an open-mind. And when I say trying something new it can be big or small. It can just simply be deciding to learn about something new each day, deciding to read a new book, watching a tv show or a movie you’ve never seen before, starting a new hobby, meeting new people (I know this one is a bad example bc everyone is social distancing LMAOO), for me I really love discovering new songs and listening to artists I haven’t heard before. I mean the risk that goes into trying something new is that maybe you won’t like it and sometimes we can have that mindset where we’re like “this is gonna suck” so we don’t even bother, but you never know until you try, and you can still have an opinion on something you don’t like too. (I can’t count how many times I’ve suffered watching something awful I could not care about but I did it anyways out of curiosity. Also NEVER form an opinion on something you know nothing about or shit on something you know nothing about or else you sound ignorant.) But open-mindedness and being able to adapt to change and trying new things is really the key to staying well-rounded and happy and fulfilled. Having a lot of interests also makes it a lot easier to be able to talk to a lot of different people about different things and make real fulfilling connections. So yeah to me, what Stan said was actually very wise and I agree with him because it’s kind of been my go-to philosophy on life.

update 2024: i’m starting to realize now that my constant need for stimulation and new experience is prob just my sociopathicness FFHJDJSJS bc i get bored of shit way quicker now than i did before

[benkybot]

Okay I've finally finished Twin Peaks completely after having been stuck on The Return for a bit and wow what an ending. To anybody reading, I cannot recommend this show enough, when it came about in the late 80's it pretty much reinvented the wheel when it came to television and when the sequel series came in 2017 it reinvented the wheel entirely again. As for my thoughts on how it ended, I am somewhat conflicted between my understanding and love of how David Lynch explores themes of cosmicism and the constant hidden danger in everyday life, whether literal or spiritual, and my want for a happy thorough and cathartic send off for the characters

The final episode of Twin Peaks is pretty much completely incomprehensible, and that's the point. While the show is always at least somewhat surreal and uncomfortable, up until this point it has been hard to shake at least some of the basic tenets of the show which we know have to be true because continuity is important, but at some point during the finale we slip through a crack in existance and suddenly nothing at all can be trusted. While this does a great job of creating discomfort and the feeling of being lost and afraid, after all this time I really want to see these guys succeed, especially Laura, like as sad as Fire Walk With Me was the ending was actually pretty affirming that the universe cares about Laura, and maybe it still does and this mysterious "Judy" has just intervened and steered them both off course, the thing about these kinds of surreal endings is that any explanation is less interesting than the events themselves.

As for some of my other gripes with Twin Peaks, I have the same dilemma with the ending of Audrey's arc. Obviously Audrey has some huge issues that aren't really addressed, in my opinion the brief glimpse we got into her world makes it seem that she's got it the worst. Audrey is one of my favourite character's and on one hand I'm not sure how to feel about giving her such a minimal arc and ending it in such a strange, bleak way and never telling us what happened, but on the other hand it does make sense given what we can gleam happened to Audrey after the events of OG twin peaks, and it is brilliantly surreal and uncomfortable and I like it for how effective it is as horror.

My other major gripe (I'm sure I'll have other things to ramble about like Coop's portrayal in the last episode and the lack of Truman but whatever) is Sarah Palmer, specifically the lack of Sarah Palmer and also the idea that she might have been our overarching antagonist all along. I love the idea of Sarah Palmer being an antagonist because Grace Zabriskie is very good at being a bit freaky and I loved her scene in the bar, however I'm just not sure if Sarah was set up well enough for me to believe that she was possessed by an evil force throughout the whole series. Maybe I'll wax poetic on this a while later to decide what I think of her thematically and that might change my mind.

Overall, I know I listed some complaints but I still rlly loved this show and I even loved some of the things I was complaining about, like I said the show is surreal and cosmicist and bleak so I was never going to get an ending that tied up every end nicely with a bow but I instead got something new and powerful and thought provoking so I'm still very happy having finished it. Maybe in the morning I'll write a post about everything I DID like cuz it's easier to complain immediately after then to express what you love.

TOKYO REVENGERS SEASON 3 EP 2

Spoilers for anime only

They're really just throwing Sanzu everywhere they can

As a manga reader this makes me laugh so hard (I know, I know, anime only aren't going to catch that but it still screams 'LOOK! Look at him! He's here!'). It's still very much Mucho the focus of each frame, but Sanzu is always always in the corner

I. You know what, sure

Continuity error but sure

Naoto's plan of action at any minor inconvenience (technically they arent minor but shhhh): Kill.

Then again, this is the Naoto who shot Mikey dead. He wouldn't care. Specially not if it's Kisaki

I love Takemichi's shirts sm. They mean everything to me

Noticed Chifuyu and Hakkai !(plus, obvious Izana, Mikey etc)

*look at his dyed blue hair* I sure wonder who that churchgoer is

HELL YEAH HE WAS

– kinda sad they made the whole uniform black and not with some gold like Toman's is

Hell yeah he had..

Well, you see, next week Emma will tell you—

.

Almost looks like they gave Koko eyeliner. But they didn't. Had my hopes up for nothing. Also, him saying "still a man stuck in the past" to refer to Taiju as if he himself wasn't–

.

I like the addition they made of having Kakucho flinch when Takemichi calls him – it does show his unwillingness to kill people. And also. The fact he prioritizes Izana and Izana's orders to his own morals. In the manga, it was more as if Kakucho, after years of doing exactly that, became rlly good at not showing he cared about it (even tho Kakucho is not someone to abandon his morals – even if he neglects them for Izana

.

This made me laugh out loud. Like yeah. Make the anime only think Kisaki is a time leaper even more. Even more than manga readers back then. Go on

+ they really went off with the budget. Taiju's aquariums (and I'm sooooo glad they animated them well. I started the episode wanting and expecting to see sharks!), Taiju's smoking and Taiju's fighting, MANILA IZANA AND KAKUCHO. And, ofc, Naoto's death scene

Can't wait for next week

5, 17 and 10 for the ask game thingy !!

ofc ofc almond!

5 - Fav rusical?

Bestie the WORMHOLE you've opened in my mind omg this debacle has been going on for centuries for me. I've settled on three which are the Thailand Rusical, El Mago Precoz and Under the big top AND HEAR ME OUT.

So like the Thailand one, amazing everyone slayed and it was overall just a great rusical. Which then made it a great episode. Amazing and I still get the first song stuck in my head sometimes.

El Mago Precoz idk if u saw me during that era but oh my god. Bestiah and Hornella slayed SO HARD like omgggg the songs were adorable like I enjoyed myself probably more than anyone else 😭 it got me THRU stuff iykyk 😔

Under the big top besides from the fact some of us including me have adopted Corsette into somewhat of an oc (good lord) it's just so funny?? Like besides "I got a, trick up my, sleeve" and whatever the hell the comedy clowns thing was like they rlly just had to go w what they had 😭😭😭 Also Icesis absolutely having none of it like it was giving Zayn really not wanting to freestyle during X-Factor auditions to me 😭

Ok enough of that we've shut the door 😭😭😭😭😭

10 - What season would you recommend to someone who's never seen the show?

For US either 3, 6 or 12. That's like the easy answer 😭 but like if u wanna set a standard I'd say drph s1. Like it had drama, an amazing cast and amazing looks. It had Pop Off Ate?? Set the bar high be invested alll the way.

17 -Fav snatch game performance?

OH MY GODDDDD either Dakota as Pete Burns, Arizona as Adele (+ joint efforts by Hana Beshie as Jessica Soho) or Pearl as Big Ang. The first three speak for themselves but the way I have to restrain myself everyday from going "I'm so excitedddd" IS SO 😭😭😭

THREE SHIPS: 

hmmmmmmm ok im no thoughts head empty so im just gonna scroll thru my blog and see what ship content appears

carmy x sydney on the bear - i was really against this season 1 but idk what happened season 2 that made me kind of want it... maybe it was bc i'm stubborn and as soon as molly gordon's character showed up i was like hold the phone (sorry claire love u claire i rlly do) or maybe it was that this season was a group project and nothing makes me ship characters like putting them in a group project together... anyway ya that's a new thing for me

jeff x shauna on yellowjackets - it's not that i think they love each other or that they hate each other it's a secret 3rd thing where he is scared of her but also kind of enthralled by this whole thing bc maybe the cure to suburban ennui is committing crimes together and helping each other cover them up

pj x hazel in bottoms: SOO GOOD. idk what else i can say. good shit.

LAST FILM:

rewatched barbie with my mom and aunts (they hadn't seen it before!) i still loved it but definitely picked up on some new stuff this time and feel even more strongly about the things i would have changed lol

CURRENTLY WATCHING:

i have one more episode of reservation dogs left (cry) and i also just started fall of the house of usher. reservation dogs is so good i had some criticisms of this season early on but i feel like it really came back around and stuck the landing and made it all make sense. fall of the house of usher is good but i was watching it on the plane tuesday morning and the jumpscares were a little much for 7 am lmfao.

CURRENTLY READING:

raw dog by jamie loftus. very funny and now i know way too much about hot dogs but i do love jamie so much <3 i also brought two other books with me: the idiot by elif batuman and bear with me now by katie shepherd

CURRENTLY CONSUMING:

hopefully thanksgiving leftovers soon <3

CURRENTLY CRAVING

coffee, good bagels
